- © Translated from the Pali by Bhante Sujato. (More copyright information)
1“What is a person’s partner?
What instructs them?
Enjoying what is a mortal
released from all suffering?”
2“Faith is a person’s partner.
Wisdom instructs them.
Delighting in extinguishment a mortal
is released from all suffering.”
1"Kiṁsu dutiyā purisassa hoti,
Kiṁsu cenaṁ pasāsati;
Kissa cābhirato macco,
Sabbadukkhā pamuccatī"ti.
2"Saddhā dutiyā purisassa hoti,
Paññā cenaṁ pasāsati;
Nibbānābhirato macco,
Sabbadukkhā pamuccatī"ti.
